If the Report that you receive was not what you expected, or if you have any suggestions, please contact ReaderService@FLAAR.org. Please be specific and understand that we are a non-profit research institute, not a commercial enterprise. But we do strive to provide helpful information so we appreciate it when you take the time to write us with your comments, observations, and ideas. Your perspective may be a point that we should consider adding to the next update.

FLAAR web sites are read by over one million people per year, from diverse different backgrounds. We work hard to provide useful information that is not filled with PR releases from the manufacturers. We are proud to be independent.

However realize that our style is somewhat unique. And remember that no other independent resource has been able to provide even a fraction of the abundant information and diverse palette of different subjects that we work hard to cover.

We sincerely appreciate your business. Remember that you can obtain consulting directly with Nicholas Hellmuth at any time, by phone, or at a trade show, any time after you have purchased a prescribed number of different titles (PDF on consulting services).

So be sure to download the Preview if you wish to get an idea of what level and what date the reports are (number of pages is sometimes a general indication of whether Fast Facts or a total evaluation).

The free FLAAR reports on this page are samples of the higher levels. Whether a printer is covered by a high level or Fast Facts depends on how difficult it is to obtain information and access to the printer. Printers that are hard to find, or printers that people don't ask about often, tend to have reports at the level of First Look.

BONUS REPORTS

Any time you order three or more FLAAR Reports on UV printers, you can ask for as many of these articles as you wish. The articles on UV printers are by Nicholas Hellmuth; the article on RIP software is by Mandy Daniel, color management expert who worked with FLAAR at FESPA and works with FLAAR as a trainer in color management.
